    Just got off the phone with a program manager at NSF.  They're going to fund a project I put in this spring.  $750k to Duke and MIT.  It's a joint project I submitted with a colleague there.  

    Always nice to get that kind of phone call.   NSF grants are uber-competitive.  
    Congratulations ole buddy👍

    My BIL is working this summer for the University of Alabama football team. 

    Figured we would treat him when he came home last weekend for 4th of July. 

    Served a tomahawk with brussel sprouts tossed in honey, Parmesan, and a plethora of bacon. 
    Dude.  Where do I sign up to be your next BIL?

    Caveman for the finish.  Great cook and presentation.  Looks like some mighty fine brown water playing quite a supporting role!  Congrats and best of luck to your BIL.

    Well it’s either start banging my sister or SIL. It hardly seems worth a steak IMO 😂
    For John, there is probably another option....

    I certainly hope so!  Otherwise this is all going to be a little bit tricky to explain to the wife...
